Mickey Boodaei is the CEO and co-founder of Transmit Security and a veteran Israeli cybersecurity entrepreneur who previously founded Trusteer (acquired by IBM for $1 billion) and Imperva. As an angel investor, he focuses on early-stage cybersecurity and network security companies, primarily in Israel and the United States, with investments spanning Seed, Series A, and Series B rounds. His typical check size ranges from $2 million to $51 million, and he often acts as an early backer rather than a lead investor in later rounds. Notable portfolio companies include Armis, Aorato (now part of Microsoft), Hyperwise, and Lacoon (now part of Check Point), all of which he invested in during their early stages. Boodaei is recognized as a leader in Israel’s cybersecurity industry and has publicly emphasized passwordless authentication as a critical future direction for enterprise security. He also co-founded a joint investment fund with fellow cyber entrepreneur Dan Amiga and US partners to support new cybersecurity ventures.
